At the forefront of the movement towards stylishly designed wheelchairs
that kids will really love to use, Chunc's modular posture management
chair (right) can grow with the child, and also offers a range of accessories
to meet different postural needs.
Powerchairs
designed specifically for children, such as the Skippi shown on the
left, help kids with severely reduced mobility achieve a high degree
of independence.
With a narrow frame for manoeuvrability, even in a small room, it is adjustable to grow with the child, and can be dismantled for easy transportation in the boot of a car.
A manual chair (right) with well-designed features such as a rising and
tilting seat, can make a great difference to independent mobility and
access.
For children who can weight-bear sufficiently, but are unable to walk independently, a supportive walking frame such as the Dynamico (left) can be used either as a means of training to walk unsupported, to improve gait, or simply as a means of moving around independently.
For
younger children, a well designed buggy with a range of frame sizes and
seating options, offers stability, comfort and easy manoeuvrability.
The Kimba Spring (left) has a dynamic, ultra-lightweight frame with suspension, reducing jolting and allowing a more comfortable ride.
The Ito (right) is lightweight and manoeuvreable and can be used for children weighing up to 40kg.
An
adapted trike with additional trunk support, can help some disabled children
who would otherwise miss out on the fun and independence of cycling.
